After completing Egypt I got bored of France and hence play the 1805-12 Campaign as Austria. Rolling around happily for the first 2 years of the campaign. I noticed that some generals (Like the Russian Kutusov) wont die, but will always get injured despite the announcer happily proclaiming " We have killed their General". I know Napoleon cant be killed but are there any other unkillable generals ?
Yes.
The leading general of each Major faction will come back injured rather than dead, most of the time.
I do remember Wellington being killed once in an early game I played, but generally your top men live on, though they lose abilities each time they are injured or are suffer serious defeat.
IIRC the 'unkillerable' ones are Blucher, Kutusov, Napoleon, Wellington and the senior Austrian general whose name I forget, because they are all (initially) very similar sounding.
Are you sure you managed to kill Wellington Fisherking?
NB: The Austrian general is Osterreich-Teschen.
Hope that helps.
It was not that I killed him. I was playing as the British. The French did it.Quote:

At least I played on a few years and never saw Wellington again but in every other game I have played he has been unkillable.
Will those unkillable generals die and disapper if their faction is destroyed but later reemerge?
No, I think they are always there.Quote:

In my campaign I destroyed and conquered all most of the provinces from Austria until they had only Vienna(I thought I will leave last). So, when I finally turned back Italy conquered it right under my nose. Later when I declared war against Italy and conquered Vienna I had the option to liberate them. Which I did just for fun(later realized it was a bad idea).Quote:

Unkillable generals in NTW ? There is no general more unkillable than a fully experienced one in MTW1, one time an enemy general slayed half my army alone before finally dying :D
